Maintaining ideal weight is important for overall health and wellness. In 2012 American Medical Association declared Obesity as a disease. We encourage our patients to lose weight on their own. However, if you have tried and feel you could benefit from Medical Supervision, we are ready to partner with you in your weight loss journey. Dr Mungekar has been a passionate advocate of maintaining healthy weight and has coached many patients in her practice to lose weight and keep it off with significant improvement in health. We are pleased to offer OPTIFAST program starting January 2014, which has been proven in Clinical Studies for over 20 years.
Finding out your BMI is the first step to assess weight loss journey ahead.
We offer two programs for Medically Supervised Weight Management.
